K-Array KMC20H Capture-KMC20H, Ultra-slim, 20cm-long brass line array microphone with preamplifier and brass base for horizontal mounting included

The K-Array Capture-KMC20 is the smallest line array microphone in the market featuring PAT technology composed of 8 x 4 mm cardioid capsules aligned in a line array configuration. The incredibly thin microphone has all the advantages of a K-array line array.

The base for the horizontal setup of the Capture is created from a single solid block of brass shaped with both a lathe and a milling cutter in the form of three concentric cylinders truncated at 60°. It contains two O-rings placed within the cylindrical connector that anchor the microphone in a perfectly horizontal position.

The microphone’s impressively slender frame is made from a 6x6 mm square brass bar. It is machined from milling cutter using bits with a radius of less than 2 mm and the product is meticulously pieced together welding 4 mm- and 2 mm-tall capsules to a 0.6 mm-thick electronic board. 5 mm-thick cuts run the entire length of the frame half a millimeter from the edge. Then the two 0.3 mm-thick stainless steel grills are micro-stretched over the cuts. The lattice is secured in place by two plates screwed one on top of the other.
